Hello Interloper!

Most of us look after our faces very well, but our hands take a lot of abuse and we may pay little attention to their care and protection. The skin on the hands also tends to be thin. As we age we lose the hyaluronic acid in our skin, this is a natural molecule that binds water and keeps younger skin nice and plump.
With a reduced amount of this substance in ageing skin, the water content goes down resulting in a crepey texture. We also lose collagen and accumulate pigment spots and broken capillaries on the skin resulting in visible changes in ageing hands.
